A Legendary Authority in Hair Colour
Founder · Jo Hansford
Jo Hansford MBE
Jo Hansford is one of the most influential names in British hairdressing and an internationally recognised authority in professional hair colour.
Celebrated throughout her career for an extraordinary understanding of colour, Jo built her reputation by creating sophisticated, beautifully considered results for some of the world’s most discerning clients.
Her expertise earned her descriptions including the “first lady of colour” and the “best tinter on the planet”, establishing Jo as a pioneering force in modern professional hair colour.
More than three decades after founding her Mayfair salon, Jo’s philosophy continues to define the business: exceptional technical knowledge, highly personalised service and an unwavering commitment to excellence.
Jo has always believed that extraordinary colour begins with understanding the individual. Every shade, highlight and tonal adjustment should enhance the client rather than simply follow a trend.
That philosophy remains at the heart of the Jo Hansford approach today and is passed through generations of colourists trained within the salon.
From its home at 48 South Audley Street, the Jo Hansford salon brings together exceptional colour expertise, styling and beauty with the highly personalised service that has defined the name for decades.
